Unfortunately, this aggressive Wasp is now retired. But fortunately she never had to be used in the Fulda Gap against tanks of the Warsaw-Pact. This is a clear sign that, we are all now
living in a more peaceful future.

This beautiful Embraer 170 has started her life at Finnair (OH-LEH). Here you can see her in the Estonia Air livery. Meanwhile the machine flies for Aeroméxico Connect (XA-ALO).

In Duesseldorf, planes from Qatar Amiri Flight can be often photographed. The sunset framed that nice Airbus 340-313 aircraft perfectly!

What a great machine, unfortunately, this Boeing 747 is very rare in our fields. The coherent paintwork also does not lose its fascination at these light conditions. Hopefully this machine will
again visit the aircraft yard at Frankfurt Airport.

The Hungarian airline Malev existed since 1946, until it had to discontinue the flight operation in 2012. For many years the machines, from the day-to-day operation of the Frankfurt airport, were
an integral part. In addition to the Fokker 70, the Boeing 737 was a frequently photographed pattern of this airline.

The aircraft yard in Mönchengladbach is always good for a surprise. Where else can we see a machine from Colombia in our region.

A wonderful plane which I could photograph only once. The Sikorsky was one of the highlights at the oldtimer Fliegertreff Hahnweide 2011.

It was a special experience to see how agile the Bronco is. The reconnaissance aircraft can hardly be beaten in its agility! Hopefully, there will be a new edition of the "Oldtimertreffen
Hahnweide" again, so that the airplane will be shown again.

A few month after this shoot "Contact Air" ceased their operation. So this was one of the rare opportunities to catch this plane. More than five years later we realize that the area of the Fokker
comes now to an end.

What a perfect moment, after a thunderstorm this beautiful ATR was presented in this contrast full light. This ex Air Dolomiti is now stored at Cotswold Airport, sad end for a workhorse.

Just seconds after take-off, this stunning livery from Cathay Pacific. This is one of these moments you want to sit in this plane ;)

Very sad to hear that Monarch Airlines ceased all operations, we will miss the appearance at European Airports. Here the oldest airplane in Monarch colors which still exist.

What a stunning Biz-Jet, the "Khaled and Reem" named Jumbo is very impressive. The Airline "Kingdom Aircraft II LLC" visit often the airport Le Bourget in Paris. So, who want to get this plane
just had to go there from time to time.

This Gnat was an lovely visitor at RIAT 2014. This was the first and last time to see this type in the air.
